Samaritan (2022) Film Review

Published: Sept. 19, 2022, 5:19 a.m.

40% on Rotten Tomatoes? Now way is that fair for this comic book/super-hero-hiding-in-plain-sight (see Unbreakable) Stallone vehicle. Its screenplay/basic story maybe as rote as it gets but we get a strong director, a top tier soundtrack, great dialogue and near the same visuals. Plus Stallone is superb, not just phoning it in and the hard edge totally belies its PG-13 rating. In fact pretty much everything bar a hackneyed basic story (with an admittedly strong twist) is very good.
